Hi,
I'm new here. So here comes my first question. I have a pair of Martin Logan Sequel II electrostatic loudspeakers. In a few weeks I'll also have two tube monoblocks with 4 Watts output power. The tubes used are 1x300B, 1x6SL7 and 1x5U4 (rectifier).
Would it be possible to pair these directly (without preamp) with the Martin Logans, which have a sensitivity of 89dB?
Would adding a preamp (solid state or tube) actually alter the situation in any way, given the monoblocks still only posses 4 watts to hand out? If a preamp is desirable what should I look out for?
So in all, what would be the best solution to pair up these monoblocks with the Martin Logans?
Looking forward to reading your replies!
